IMPORTANT LEGAL INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS FOR BOARD AND COMMISSION MEMBERS

Anyone appointed to a Commission or Board by the Town Council is a “Public Official” per Arizona law and is obligated to adhere to related standards of conduct and ethics. In particular, the Town of Marana needs to be aware of any actual or potential conflict of interest that could occur if you are appointed to the Planning Commission or Board of Adjustment or Public Safety Personnel Retirement System

List any financial or ownership interest you have or a relative has that will create a conflict of interest for you. This includes anything that you or a relative own or have a substantial financial stake in. There are several kinds of remote interests that do not create a conflict of interest and do not need to be included. For example, it is not a conflict of interest to participate in a decision about a corporation you or a relative own stock in, as long as you and/or your relatives own less than 3% of the shares of the corporation and get less than 5% of your and/or your relative’s total annual income from it. It is also generally not a conflict of interest to participate in decisions about nonprofit corporations you volunteer for, a government entity you or a relative work for, your tenant or landlord, or a class of people that includes you. A relative includes your spouse, child, parent, grandparent, sibling, their spouses, and your spouse’s parent, sibling or child. If you have questions about whether you or a relative have a financial or ownership interest that should be listed, please contact the Town Clerk or the Town Attorney.
